French politicians launch circular economy club

PARIS - A new circular economy ‘club’ has been launched in France in a bid to lobby policy makers to introduce legislation in areas such as recycling and better resource use. The cross-party initiative, which reflects France’s proactive stance on textile recycling and more sustainable textiles use, has been set up by Green Party member, François Michel Lambert, and Chantal Jouanno from the centre-right Union of Democrats and Independents.
